[quote=Anonymous]My job requires that I sit in front of a computer all day. I work from home everyday now and it's fairly simple for get 10,000 steps. I do a walk in the morning and get about 3000 steps. Do a walk at lunch and get about 4000 steps. I get about 3000 steps just milling around the house all day and running an errand or two. When I worked downtown pre covid, I actually used to average over 16000 steps a day. To beat traffic into the city, I would go in by 5am and do a workout in my office building's gym. I would get at least 6,000 steps and be at my desk by 7am. I would go for a walk at lunch and get at least 4000 steps. I would leave around 2:30 to beat HOV and do an hour or two or work at home. My kids were smaller then and I would take them to practice and walk while they practiced for 90 minutes. I would get 16000-18000 steps a day. If I didn't think about it, I probably would get about 4000-5000 steps just walking around my house in a day, but, to get 10,000 steps, you need to put in a conscience effort of walking at lunch, after work, or after dinner, etc.  I also used to be a bit crazy with my steps and I would march when brushing my teeth, waiting for the microwave to run, when I was on the phone, watching TV sometimes, etc. I'd run up and down my steps to get floors and steps. Even now I take the steps whenever I can in an office building and also park far away when I go places. [/quote]
